Idaho Hills Interest Part-Time Prospectors Moscow, Idaho UJ5 The famed Idaho hills of gold rush days still hold interest for part time prospectors according to A. W. Fahrenwald, dean of the Uni versity of Idaho's College of Mines and director of the Bureau of Mines and Geology. "We have received between 700 and 800 mineral samples every year since the depression," Fahrenwald reported. "Although the. number remains about the same, the kinds of samples and the questions asked about them vary from year to year." In the depression men hunted gold until they could lind jobs. Strategic metals were the goal of the mineral-hunters during World War II. Today the $10,000 bonus offered by the Atomic Energy Commission for uranium discoveries lures prospectors. Gold and silver are virtually forgotten. Newly discovered deposits of kyanite, a high-grade silicate used in the manufacture of porcelain for sparkplugs, and monazite In rock form also at tract today's prospectors. Famed Aviatrix On Way to Tokyo Honolulu (U.R) Famed woman flier Jacqueline Cochran was scheduled today to take off for Tokyo after slipping unan nounced into Honolulu aboard a military plane.-. - , Miss Cochran, holder of the L world's 500 kilometer Jet speed record, amvea yesterday on a plane carrying top Air Force officers. She was listed on the passenger manifest as simply "Col. Cochran." Newsmen waiting at Hickam Field to interview Lt, Gen. Jo seph Cannon, commanding gen eral of the Air Force Tactical Fighter command, discovered that "Col. Cochran" was Ameri ca's leading aviatrix. Miss Cochran is a colonel in the Civil Air Patrol. She is en route to Tokyo on CAP business.- Garden Notes BT C B. CORDT County Extension Agent for Horticulture) A last application of fertilizer should be applied to our lawns now. Use from Vi to 1 lb. of Ammonium Sulfate to each 10x10 foot area. If you use a complete fertilizer use 3 or 4 lbs. in a 10x10 foot area. Be sure to water the lawn thoroughly after the fertilizer is applied or severe burning of grass may re sult. Most of our grasses have a ten dency to become dormant with the approach of short cool days and long nights. When they go into their dormancy and stop growing, they lose their green color and by spring will have a yellowish appearance. An appli cation of fertilizer now will stimulate the plants enough to overcome this tendency to go dormant and the grass will re main nice and green all winter. In addition to keeping the grass greeh it will also encourage root growth which will thicken the mat of grass. A good thick mat of grass is the best control for such annual weeds as crab grass. It will also help to keep out new seedlings of such peren nials as dandelion and plantain. Where dandelion and plantain are already established in a lawn, now would be a good time to spray them with 2-4D. There are a wide variety of weed killers on the market but the most effective ones are those containing 2-4D. These are sold under a wide va riety of brand names but the la bel will list 2-4D as the effective ingredient. . Until the atomic era, uranium was merely a byproduct of ra dium and vanadium mines, use ful for coloring glass, pattern, and artificial teeth. Court Records CIRCUIT COURT Ellen Lerine Oaborne vt.
